A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories. This draft is a work item of the SIP Overload Control Working Group of the IETF. Title : Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) Rate Control Author(s) : Eric Noel Philip M Williams Filename : draft-ietf-soc-overload-rate-control-03.txt Pages : 15 Date : 2012-10-17 Abstract: The prevalent use of Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) [RFC3261] in Next Generation Networks necessitates that SIP networks provide adequate control mechanisms to maintain transaction throughput by preventing congestion collapse during traffic overloads. Already [draft-ietf-soc-overload-control-09] proposes a loss-based solution to remedy known vulnerabilities of the [RFC3261] SIP 503 (service unavailable) overload control mechanism. This document proposes a rate-based control solution to complement the loss-based control defined in [draft-ietf-soc-overload-control-09].
